Hello folks, I recorded this soundclip quickly with MIM Fender Jazz 5 strings from a friend that asked me to install Seymour Duncans Quarter Pounders and Aguilar OBP-3 SK/PP in it... this is a raw recording, no modifications, no EQ, in order to hear the pure sound (Both Pickups - Bass 65% - Mid flat - Treble 65%) I thought this may be usefull, for some one looking at this pickups and preamp specifically. Let Me know what you think https://soundcloud.com/dambass/seymour-aguilar
That sounds great. Aguilar makes some awesome sounding preamps, and the aggressiveness it lends to the QP's is making them sound quite impressive. I wonder how much mids you can add to the sound though; QP's seem to be already very hot in the low. I always found the QP's to sound awesome direct and then loose that magic through colored bass cabinets like a 410. The extra lows and 10's didn't match up; and the less mids made the tone sound very one dimensional out of a bass cabinet. However direct; wow.
Thanks, those are D'addario Nickel, the basses in the other clips are Fender Am Standart, and a Custom Bass with Nordstrand Dual Coils and Aguilar OBP-3 the brand is www.utreracustom.com
